Re: [Hypercontent-users] Navigation

[Alex V. <av...@co...>]

Hi Carl,
	I would try replacing the XPath in your first for-each with

$navigation/nav-item/nav-item[starts-with(/cms:wrapper/cms:source/ 
@directory,@directory)]

I'm assuming the problem is that at lower levels, the source directory  
is not equal to the nav-item directory, but is a descendant of it.  Let  
me know how that works.
